Cemetery Money Hunt Video Draws Criticism, Vlogger Issues Apology
MONEY HUNT – A vlogger has issued an apology after earning backlash online over controversial cemetery money hunt.
Filming content in cemeteries might seem like a creative idea to some vloggers, but it often leads to backlash from the public. That’s because cemeteries are special places where people go to remember their loved ones who have passed away. They’re meant to be quiet, peaceful, and filled with respect, not used for games, pranks, or viral challenges.
When content creators choose to film in these areas, especially when walking over graves or being loud, it can hurt the feelings of families who regularly visit the site. Seeing someone treat a place of rest like a playground can come across as very disrespectful.
Recently, a vlogger who shared a video of money hunt inside Calinan Memorial Park quickly circulated online and elicited comments from netizens. The money hunt took place last Saturday, June 14, 2025.
In the video, some people were eagerly searching for hidden money across the cemetery grounds. The video sparked outrage from viewers, especially from families with loved ones buried in the memorial park.
Many netizens felt disrespected upon seeing participants stepping on graves and disturbing the space meant for remembering the dead.
Heartbroken relatives pointed out that not only were the tombs stepped on, but offerings such as flowers and candles were also carelessly brushed aside. To them, the incident seemed thoughtless and inappropriate for such a solemn location.
The vlogger removed the video and shared a message of apology after receiving criticism from the public. According to the vlogger, the activity had been approved by those managing the cemetery.
